Vitrum 2015: ideas, technologies, applications and glass culture

On 6- 9 October the glass industry will gather at Milan’s Rho Fiera exhibition complex for Vitrum 2015, Europe’s topmost showcase of machinery, equipment and special products for glass processing.

Vitrum will be the perfect opportunity to present the main news in flat and hollow glass from across the five continents to the international business community. Trade people and visitors coming to Milan from all over the world can see the finest technologies for glass in industry, buildings, furniture and homeware, the pharmaceutical and automotive sectors, focusing in particular on the money and energy savings of these products.

Now in its 19th year, Vitrum has become a one-stop shopping point that brings a public interested in quality production to Milan every 2 years and is an unmissable forum for decision makers in this particular and highly specialized industrial sector.

The last exhibitions attracted leading glass players with exhibitors arriving from 28 countries and more than 20,000 visitors (more than half of whom were foreigners).

Once again this year, with a busy program of special events during its 4-day run, Vitrum will be the ideal place to source technological and industrial know-how, as well as the creative and innovative proposals obtained from this precious material. The Italian appointment with the glass industry has always stood out for also honing in on important cultural and research topics, ranging from the presentation of valuable works of art to disseminating the latest technical know-how, in order to give its vast public the opportunity to discover all the potential and marvelous multi-faceted nature of glass.

Vitrum 2015 is also special because this year it coincides with Expo 2015, the Universal Exposition which will place the international spotlights on Milan. Expo 2015, with its “Feeding the Plant, Energy for Life” theme, whose exhibition site is easy to reach from Vitrum, will offer the opportunity to live a unique experience of international food tastings and traditions. For this very reason, getting to Vitrum has been made easier. Following an agreement between Trenitalia and Fiera Milano, the Rho Fiera Expo Milano train station will make it quicker for exhibitors and visitors to reach the exhibition complex. More details about trains stopping near the exhibition site are available from: www.trenitalia.com as well as the Vitrum website.

Exhibitors at Vitrum can also count on support in finding the right accommodation while in Milan, which should be booked in advance given its overlapping dates with Expo. All details from http://www.vitrum-milano.com/en/accomodation-and-restaurants/ .
